Hey! Just to let you know that the new episode is up! This time it's about the game I can't stop playing: Yakuza 0. In this vid, I talk about why the game's joyous absurdity actually allows it to tell more human stories. Thank you so much for all your continued support. You have no idea how much it means to me. I really hope you enjoy it! Hamish Writing on Games

Some substories are mentioned.) Yakuza 0 is a wildly dissonant experience, swinging violently between super-serious gangster intrigue, slapstick violence and over-the-top melodrama.
